Default Heather flys

Hi I have been fishing around the Edinburgh area on the local reserviors and there is no Heather flys around yet just wondering if its going to be a bad year for them.

Must have been an exceptionally good year for them last year. I've never seen so many in the Sheffield area before. I don't expect to see any this year, that's the way nature works, right?

Was praying for them over the last few weeks to show on the lake for the final on saturday but i think the cold winter this year has been the problem but i might be wrong though.
